If the second collection item is displaying on both pages in Webflow, even after selecting "Limit to 1, start at 1" for the first page and "Limit to 1, start at 2" for the second page, there are a few possible solutions to consider:

  1. Check the Collection List settings: First, make sure you have correctly set up the Collection List that is displaying the collection items on both pages. Double-check that you have followed the steps to connect the Collection List to the appropriate collection and sorted it correctly.

  2. Inspect the Collection Item limit settings: Review the settings for the Collection Item within the Collection List and confirm that the correct "Limit to" and "Start at" values are entered. Ensure that you have assigned the appropriate values to the first page and the second page.

  3. Inspect your Collection item filter settings: If you have set up any filters on the Collection List, it's important to check their configuration. Make sure there are no filters that are mistakenly affecting the display of the second collection item on both pages.

  4. Check your page structure: Verify the structure of your pages to ensure that the Collection List and Collection Item elements are properly nested within their respective parent elements. If they are not nested correctly, it can cause issues with the display of the collection items.

  5. Check for conflicting elements or classes: Look for any conflicting elements or classes on the first and second pages. Sometimes, conflicting settings can cause unexpected behavior. Review your page elements, classes, and interactions to ensure there are no conflicts.

  6. Clear cache and republish: It's also possible that the issue is related to cached data. Clear your browser cache and republish your site to see if that resolves the problem.

If none of these troubleshooting steps solve the issue, it may be helpful to reach out to Webflow support or consult the Webflow community forums for further assistance.
